Freedom Boat Club Expands to 21 Locations in Massachusetts

Freedom Boat Club, the world’s largest boat club and a Brunswick Corporation business, announced it has acquired the Freedom Boat Club of Greater Boston & Cape Cod franchise operations, the largest current franchise in the Freedom network.

The acquisition includes 21 locations across Greater Boston, Cape Cod and surrounding areas, further expanding Freedom’s growing corporate club portfolio in the Northeast. The transaction also includes a maintenance operations center and dealership anchored by a 7,200-square-foot facility, strengthening Freedom’s regional maintenance and fleet resale capabilities to support continued growth.

The Greater Boston and Cape Cod operation was founded and grown under the leadership of Matt Carrick and Matt O’Connor, who built one of the most successful operations in the Freedom franchise network. The club is recognized for consistent membership growth and satisfaction, strong operational performance and a commitment to delivering a premium boating experience.

Following the acquisition, Matt O’Connor and Matt Carrick will remain Freedom Boat Club franchisees, continuing to operate their club locations in Ocean and Monmouth County, NJ, and remaining actively involved in the ownership group running Freedom Boat Club of Ohio and Freedom Boat Club of Pittsburgh.
